Maria Antoinette Watercolor Framed in Gold on Envelope school work looks very much like folk

looks very much like folk art (and really very much like the school girl drawings of flowers I like so much) to me

but I've never seen all of these rolled into one

and the roundedness of the head in contrast to the point of the tail

which for me are forever wed to Jasper Johns and so feel sort of like art objects themselves

one inserted into her base

Maria Antoinette Watercolor Framed in Gold on Envelope school work looks very much like folkWell, how could I resist this little watercolor portrait of Marie Antoinette, I assime with that hair and beauty marks and attitude??! Painted on the back of an old envelope, into which one might yet slip a love note or gift certificate to a fancy cake shop! 5 1 8" x 4 1 16" and in very good condition. Late 19th c. or so I would guess.
